Yes!
The problem with different-metal fasteners is partly electrolytic
corrosion, and you can't depend on grease (it squeezes out)
or anti-sieze (which has particles that don't squeeze out,
but which aren't gonna block moisture penetration or oxygen).
Soft solids like teflon are like grease except don't squeeze
out or wash away. I like the teflon tape, myself, but the
pipe dope should work similarly.
